[GNC] Import of CSV

[David Cousens]

Gyle

The CSV data is likely not marked as cleared as the CSV importer can be
used fro importing data from any source, including self generated while
the OFX data is more likely to originate form a bank download. Cleared
is not the same as reconciled. It was more relevant in the days when
cheques might take longer to be cleared through another bank and appear
in your banks statement after making a deposit for example. 

Most transactions I make these days appear in my bank app within
seconds particularly on my credit card.

Cheers
